Two sources seem to think that the character is pronounced with the third
tone. It is commonly used as a variant of 来 in Cantonese with the variant
pronunciation lèih (Cantonese).

Unihan - http://www.unicode.org/cgi-bin/GetUnihanData.pl?codepoint=553B
Lexican - http://arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-can/

Editor: in fact lexi-can is copying information from Unihan, so this only one source, one in which errors are not infrequent.
唻 is given as lai4 or lai2 in dictionaries. As an onomatopeia it can of course have different tones, the third tone is the most unlikely of all.
Diff:
# - 唻 唻 [lai4] /(onomatopeia)/
# + 唻 唻 [lai3] /to come (Yue topolect)/(onomatopeia)/
